Chapter 1
(No) LifeIt was an ordinary morning. I was getting ready for my part-time job. In the morning I delivered leaflets and in the afternoon and evening I worked at the café. It was my daily routine since I’ve graduated from high school.
I was in the café serving a customer and preparing a coffee for her when I heard about Exo’s concerts in the TV. I sighed a little because I knew I won’t ever be able to go to their concert. I couldn’t even afford to buy their songs, so I was listening to them just on YouTube.
